The More Ofori-Atta Messes Up The Economy, The Better For The NDC – Asiedu Nketia

General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia says the NDC will benefit from Ken Ofori-Atta’s continuation as Finance minister of the country.

According to him, the more Mr ofori-Atta messes the economy, the more likely the NDC takes advantage and return to power in 2024.

“The party has taken this position because we think that the interest of the NDC will be better served if the President insists on Ofori-Atta becoming the next Finance Minister because, as far as we are concerned, he has messed up so badly that it will inure to the benefit of the NPP if they had a new face but once they have chosen to maintain him, he should be there, continue the mess, which will then pave the way for the NDC to come to power,” he noted.

Responding to a question on whether the NDC supports Ofori-Atta’s approval he said “Yes” but added: “If we were in power, Ofori-Atta will never get near the Finance Ministry but the situation is that they are in power and the party in power defines the national interest according to their beliefs, so, if the mess he is creating constitutes national interest, in the view of the NPP, let him go and continue because we consider it to be a mess and we now have reason to believe that Ofori-Atta has lost face in the national finance community, he has lost face domestically; the workers of the country have a problem with him and all that.”
